Question

11 chemistry: define orbital ​

Answer 1

Answer:

atomic theory and quantum mechanics, an atomic orbital is a mathematical function describing the location and wave-like behavior of an electron in an atom. This function can be used to calculate the probability of finding any electron of an atom in any specific region around the atom's nucleus.

Answer 2

Answer:

Orbit is a well-defined circular path around the nucleus in which the electrons revolve whereas atomic orbitals are the 3-dimensional spaced around the nucleus where the probability of finding an electron is maximum. Orbits represent the motion of electrons in a plane and they are non-directional in nature.
